Traf­fic woes to ease

TRAF­FIC de­lays in the South Perth sta­tion precinct are ex­pected to re­duce af­ter the mod­i­fi­ca­tion to several traf­fic light sig­nals. Dur­ing the past six months the City of South Perth has been work­ing with Main Roads WA to ex­plore short and long-term im­prove­ments to the traf­fic sig­nals at the in­ter­sec­tions of Mends Street, Mill Point Road, Labouchere Road and Kwinana Free­way. The in­ter­sec­tion mod­i­fi­ca­tions have shown im­me­di­ate im­prove­ments in the ef­fi­cient flow of traf­fic, with traf­fic modelling by the City show­ing de­creased con­ges­tion dur­ing peak hour traf­fic pe­ri­ods.
